There are not many blogs out there dedicated to cooking on a pellet smoker. I have been cooking, grilling & smoking over 35 yrs now. I recently bought a Traeger Lil Tex Elite pellet smoker & have cooked on it over six yrs. now. I would like to share recipes & info I have gained from cooking on it.
Update 2014: I have plenty of recipes here for the pellet smoker so I am now including other outdoor cooking and some of my indoor cooking too.

Taco Omelet

May 02 2016

Here is a tasty breakfast and brunch omelet. The other night
I was hungry and had some corn tortillas on hand, I thought throw it in a
skillet and top with an egg, fold over omelet style. I don’t remember if I saw
this somewhere or just a new idea.

I heated a skillet with some olive oil spray on med. high;
added the corn tortilla and after a minute turned it over. I added a beaten egg,
some shredded cheese, salt and pepper, and covered with a lid until the egg was
setting up some then folded like an omelet. I cooked it a little more on both
sides. It made a great mid-night snack.

I am waiting to see if it’s dry enough to mow grass, since
it rained last night. The wife came home from exercise class at the Y and I ask
if she wanted to share a Taco omelet. I made up one and used two eggs, added
some chopped onions and red pepper, bacon bits, shredded four cheese Mexican
and some garlic salt. We split it and had some salsa on top.

It tasted great and if I was doing several I would just use
one egg. If you like the eggs more runny use two but I like the eggs set up
more. Two of these and some bacon would make a fine breakfast.

I just checked and it is a misty rain so mowing will have to
wait until tomorrow. I just searched the net and there are a lot of recipes out
there for taco omelets.

About Me

I started cooking when our children were in highschool & my wife worked.I was layed off during the summer & just kinda took over the kitchen & my wife does most all the cleanup. We are both retired now. I am a recipe hound, love to try new things. I suppose my cooking methods have evolved from Mid West Ohio, Southern, Soul, Cajun, Creole, & German, all of which I love.
